As to the Ndbele, get ready fot another gukurahundi.

Well, this caused me to look up "gukurahundi" and I wish I hadn't. It seems that the Ndbele, the second largest tribe in Zimbabwe, were in opposition to Mugabe and had the gukurahundi, a North Korean trained military group unleashed on them. Approximately 20,000 people were killed, often in very horrible ways. Yep, Mugabe and his trained attack dogs have no love for the Ndbele and they'll get it again.

"gukurahundi"

Shona word meaning "storm that sweeps away the chaff"

Which says a lot about what Mugabe's people thought about the Ndebele.

The massacres were conducted by the 5th Brigade, North Koreasn trained.
